Can anyone help with my hair?

My hair is awful. It breaks really easily. Its really short at the sides as a consequence of me shoving it in a ponytail. The obvious answer of course is to stop putting it up, which I'm trying to do. I don't use heat, basically i wash it and then leave it to air dry. What else can i do to help it get stronger? Its very fine and thin, i wash it 3x per week and use a hair mask conditioner 1-2 times a week. Thinking a multi vitamin might help but there's so many. Any help gratefully received. It never used to be this weak!

I take Nutrihair supplement, which seems to help. Do you need to wash it that often? I wash mine less. Probably putting it under additional pressure. Could you cut out a wash, and wash it 2x a week, see how you went on?

Is it bleached? If it's bleached damaged, I've found olaplex amazing - but I've combined it with some redken ones from my hairdresser too (olaplex once a week and redken other times). I also take hair burst, people say they don't work but it's been amazing for me, I've got so much new hair growth and it's much stronger!

Regular trims are a must, otherwise it'll break higher and higher up and get weaker.

I used to be a ponytail fan - now I use the little butterfly style clips to keep it out of my face and it's not getting broken around the ponytail band now either 😊
